DIN 2353 tube nuts
The union nut drives the matched cutting ring during assembly of a DIN 2353 hydraulic tube connection. Select it by tube outside diameter, series, union thread and fitting system rather than spanner size alone.
Supplied by Fluidline, Midrand, South Africa. Delivery enquiries welcome across Southern and Central Africa.

Choose the right tube nuts
A nut that starts on a thread is not proof of a correct connection. Some different tube sizes and series share a union thread. Check the tube end, seat and matched cutting ring before ordering a replacement nut.

Use the Fluidline part number from the table and provide the quantity and delivery town. Fluidline will confirm the item, availability and supporting documentation with the quotation.
Read the drawing before ordering
The linked catalogue drawings identify the dimension letters used in the tables. Linear dimensions are in millimetres; thread designations are shown separately. Obtain the order-specific drawing before fabrication or installation.

Tube nuts: questions answered
Can I identify a tube nut from the thread alone?
Not reliably. For example, the catalogue lists M18 × 1.5 for both 12L and 10S tube ends. Confirm the tube diameter, series, seat and fitting system as well as the thread.
Are all catalogue sizes available from stock?
The dimension tables describe catalogue configurations. Contact Fluidline with the exact part number and quantity to confirm current availability, material and supplied condition.
Request the right fitting
Send the connection details and operating conditions. Fluidline can confirm the supplied configuration, availability and supporting documentation with your quotation.
